- 1/2 c. butter
- 3/4 c. sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 c. all purpose flour
- 2 3/4 teaspoon baking pwdr
- 1 c. mashed ripe bananas (about 3 med.)
- 1 c. coarsely minced dry fruit (apricots, pears, peaches, apples)

In a separate bowl put together the dry ingredients and stir till well mixed. Add in the dry ingredients to the butter mix, mixing well.Stir in the bananas and minced fruit. Blend in only 1/3 cup of the walnuts. Pour the batter into a greased 4 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch loaf pan. Sprinkle the top with remaining nuts.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 65 to 70 min or possibly till a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool bread 20 to 30 min before turning out on a rack to cool completely.
- Good served with: Fruit or possibly chicken salad, spread with whipped butter or possibly cream cheese.
- Tips: This bread will slice easier if wrapped and stored for 12 hrs. You can substitute any minced dry fruit in any combination you wish.
- This is banana bread with a difference - a very agreeable difference. In addition to the banana, there is a veritable cornucopia of other fruit; dry apricots, peaches, pears and apples, as well as minced nuts. It makes an attractive and delicious bread you will be happy to serve.
